Zimmerman/Treyvon out of the Media

I saw this on another board and I'm wondering why you all think now that more evidence and documentation is coming out supporting Zimmerman's case why the Media has done a complete 180 and not discussing it anymore at all. All I've seen is about his bail but no outrage or anything else.....

I don't know, I watched the Today show today and heard more about some girl spilling frozen yougurt on Obama's pants than this case. I don't watch the news every single day though.

what you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

If you want to say that Zimmerman was justified in shooting Trayvon and calling it self-defense because Trayvon may have been winning the fight, then that means that if your (hypothetical) daughter were walking down the street and a man starts following her, attacks her, and she fights for her life, and he is losing and now fearing for his life so he chokes her to death -- he is also justified and can call it self defense. Its the same damn thing. The same situation. It doesn't change because the victim is male. If you believe that it does, why then, that's sexist.

eta: That was the longest damn bunch of run-on sentences I have ever written.

I have... Personally, I do not believe it was a racist act and murder. I believe that Zimmerman should NEVER have followed him and just went with the phone call to the police and allowed them to do their job. However, Its seems that Treyvon did confront him and their was an altercation which led to a viscious fight in turn Zimmerman shot in self defense. That IMO doesn't excuse the fact that he shot him ,which is why I think he'll get voluntary manslaughter and will certainly pay for what he has done.
